Weekly output: Internet founders in D.C., Tim Berners-Lee at Web Summit, Bluesky account-verification advice

This holiday-shortened week still had a lot of work–just not all the kind that yielded bylines, in some cases not the kind that will yield bylines this year. 11/25/2024: Internet Founders: Open Architectures Are Best, But Big Tech Makes It Difficult, PCMag As I wrote last week, it’s a treat seeing Internet pioneers speak about how their collective invention has been working out and what we ought…

Like a venomous puss moth emerging from its hard cocoon, the social network formerly known as Twitter has fully metamorphosed into X.com.

Various elements of Twitter had already embraced the rebranding, and the company has been using X.com links since early April. But now the domain has flipped over entirely, marking the end of a tumultuous transition period—and erasing the last vestiges of the bird app.

“We are letting you know that we are changing our URL, but your privacy and data protection settings remain the same,” reads a message at the bottom of the X login and home pages.

The switchover has been a long time coming. X owner Elon Musk announced the shift from Twitter to X last July, a few months after he officially acquired the company. But the billionaire has for decades harbored a dream of creating an “everything app” by that name, and Twitter is his vessel.

“The Twitter name made sense when it was just 140-character messages going back and forth—like birds tweeting—but now you can post almost anything, including several hours of video,” Musk wrote on the newly redubbed X last summer. “In the months to come, we will add comprehensive communications and the ability to conduct your entire financial world. The Twitter name does not make sense in that context, so we must bid adieu to the bird.”

Twitter under Musk has indeed added video and voice calls to its roster of features. It has also replatformed conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones, fostered a welcoming environment for porn spam accounts, made an absolute hash out of verification, introduced a monetization system that encourages rampant engagement farming, gutted its trust and safety team, allowed a surge in hate speech on the platform, designated NPR as “US state-affiliated media,” removed news headlines entirely and then reintroduced them in a weird spot, kneecapped a bunch of fun bots and third-party apps by introducing wildly expensive API changes while giving blue-check verification to AI-generated chum, pivoted to video, introduced an AI model that will help you do crimes, and overseen a decline in usage of more than 20 percent in the US, according to app analytics firm SensorTower.

The “entire financial world” part remains a work in progress.

A sentimentalist may bemoan the death of Twitter, which for all its faults always had a capacity to delight and surprise. But remember that this transformation was inevitable. Musk first owned X.com in 1999, when he cofounded an online bank by that name; it would eventually merge with a competitor and become PayPal. He bought X.com back from PayPal in 2017, tweeting that it had “great sentimental value.” And he has seen Twitter as an opportunity to create X on Earth since before the acquisition was even completed, according to Musk biographer Walter Isaacson.

“In the days leading up to his takeover of Twitter at the end of October 2022, Musk’s moods fluctuated wildly,” Isaacson wrote in Elon Musk. “He said that he would turn it into the combination of financial platform and social network he had envisioned 24 years earlier for X.com, and he added that he planned to rebrand it with that name, which he loved.”

To put an even finer point on it, Musk’s tweet today announcing that “all core systems are now on X.com” featured the logo of the company he founded 25 years ago.

While X may never become the everything app of Musk’s dreams, it’s undeniably and indelibly a different place than the one he bought. Which in some ways makes this final transition all the more palatable. Whatever Elon Musk’s platform has become, it’s certainly not Twitter. Call it whatever you want.

Happy 1 Million Views to the Video That Broke Me

This is a repost of something I wrote over on my Cohost, but I figured a year later it should also probably live on the domain I pay money to have. Better late than never!

This is the most successful piece of content I have ever created. At one million views it is the thing I've made that people have seen the most. It is the thing that the most people have seen my name attached to. And it's total trash.

It's 2017 and we're a week or so out from the release of Sonic Mania, a game that I'm, at that point, pretty damn excited for. A kindly poster from the Something Awful forums (that I have known from many forums previous) poses a challenge: be the first to beat his short kaizo Sonic the Hedgehog 2 ROM hack and he'll gift you a copy of Sonic Mania on Steam when it comes out.

I was already getting the game on PS4 but I figured whatever, everyone else seems to be having trouble with it, I'm bored, I got nothing better to do, I'll give it a shot. I load up KEGA Fusion, start a low bitrate and resolution OBS recording because it'll probably take a few hours and who cares it's a forum contest verification video, and get to work. A hour and half-ish goes by and I'm finished with the hack. I upload the video to YouTube, post it in the thread, win my free copy of Sonic Mania, and that's the end of the story. Thanks for reading.

Except of course it's not the end of the story. A few months after I got done thoroughly enjoying Sonic Mania, I realized that I'd been getting a weird amount of new subscriber emails from YouTube. I decided to actually look at my metrics and noticed a uh, highly localized spike of activity. Give you one guess on which video (hint: it's the one this post is about). "The Algorithm" had suddenly taken it and was running away with it at lightning speed.

In the timespan between posting the video and this spike, YouTube had announced they were drastically raising the bar on the metrics you needed to hit to have your channel monetized. I was by no means a large YouTuber at the time, but I was meeting the old requirements for monetization just fine. I wasn't anywhere near meeting the new requirements until now and this video was blowing the hell up for whatever reason, so I decided to do what any good opportunist would do and made it an unwatchable experience.

I set the ad frequency on that thing to the maximum that it'd let me. I forget exactly how frequent that was but it was something absurd like an ad every 5 minutes. Maybe even more than that. I figured I'd either get rich or maybe it would make people stop watching and leaving the worst comments in the world. Seriously the comments on this thing are their own nightmare, a bizarre soup of people ascribing meaning to nothing, trying to suss out emotions where there are none, saying complete gibberish, I'd need an entire second post to unpack whatever the hell is going on there.

Well, I wouldn't quite say I got rich. The money you get off what most people would conventionally call a popular YouTube video is just not much in the grand scheme of things. But holy shit they didn't stop watching. If anything they were watching more. Why didn't they stop watching? This video was less than nothing. It was an ordeal to watch all the way through. Why were they doing this? Why was the algorithm showing this to everyone? Why this and not one of the things I put effort into or something that was at least meant to be entertaining at all? I didn't have the answers and I still don't.

Before this I personally wasn't lamenting the possibility of losing monetization on my channel as up until this point I had made around $40 total on YouTube in the decade or so I'd had a channel. But I had been spending a lot that time watching friends with channels around the size of mine who were actively hustling to, and unfortunately failing to, meet the new hurdle. They were putting out some really good shit. Way better than my stuff, frankly. And here I was getting launched to the finish line by... a throwaway, blurry, hour and a half long, commentary-free, save state abusing playthrough of a crummy Sonic ROM hack? That I had made as a means to a completely separate end?? That got promoted by a computer program for seemingly no reason???

It felt shitty. One of the friends I mentioned in that last paragraph was my longtime friend Fotts who was in the middle of getting their (sadly now dormant) series TAS Force off the ground. They were constantly tweeting about the ordeal of trying to meet the new monetization requirements and it was a damn shame because they were putting in a ton of effort and it was great. The kind of thing I'd watch even if I wasn't friends with anyone on it. It was a million times funnier than anything I was doing, and the complete opposite of my shitty contest video. If there was any justice in this world the views I was getting on this dumpster fire would be going to them. But as it turns out, there is no justice online.

I recalled a conversation I had with them a few years back while they, I, and a group of about 7 or so other friends were all wandering around an Orlando Wal-Mart wearing identical black t-shirts that read "MARVEL CAN SUCK MY COCK" in big block letters (long story). They had actually kind of gone through this sort of thing before. See, they're the uploader and one of the voices of this video you may or may not have seen with 6.5+ million views on it.

They lamented to me many of the laments I was currently lamenting. "This was just a stupid throwaway thing", "why is this so much more popular than the stuff I put effort into", "it's just me making PaRappa the Rapper say the word 'Chinese' over and over". Ok maybe that last one was a bit more specific to them. Anyway, I responded with (and I admit a lot of the reason I felt this way was because I thought and still think the video is funny) something along the lines of "you can't pick what hits for people, it might have been throwaway but at the end of the day you posted it because you thought it was at least a little bit funny, try and focus on the fact that you have a popular video at all rather than the fact it's not one of the videos you're particularly proud of".

But yeah damn turns out that advice is easier said than done when it happens to you, and it's even harder done when it happens to a factually not entertaining video. One you could have uploaded as unlisted and achieved your intended result with. The runaway success of this thing genuinely broke me on this whole "Internet" deal.

I should stress I mean this in a good way. I realized that it's not so much that you can't pick what hits for people, it's that you physically cannot pick what gets put in front of people. The people cannot pick what hits for them. A computer does. You can try and promote and affect what gets seen in your own small sphere of influence, but ultimately we are, on YouTube and on all of our social platforms, at the mercy of a black box of computer programs that I'm not even sure the people who created them understand anymore. I'd obviously known this on some level prior to this video existing, but bearing witness to it all happening firsthand to this video in particular was another thing entirely. Anything prior that I had achieved marginally similar success with (there were a couple that had broken 100k) was meant to be entertaining. It was meant for people to watch and go "I liked that", not for one guy on a forum to see and go "good work solving my maze Superman". I could classify the success as "neat, people liked that one" in my brain. This defied classification.

The only logical conclusion was that it truly didn't matter what I uploaded. It's all decided by a random machine picking things at random to serve random amounts of people, and the people click on it and watch it simply because it is there. You can poke at the machine, prod at the machine, try to guess what the machine likes, try to iterate on something the machine has previously demonstrated that it likes. It's all an effort to get the machine to put it in front of the people who will click it because it is there. That's what all the bigger capital-C Content Creators do. From the high level stuff of "what kind of things do I upload" to the low level minutia of "how many curse words can I say in the first minute", making it Big On Line in any capacity is about trying to appease an unknowable mechanical entity and nothing else. It's either that or you're "old money" in a sense, established before this all became the case.

And again, the bigger names do this. Entire companies do this. If I were "smart" I would have pivoted my entire YouTube channel to nothing but hour and a half long commentary-free bullshit hard ROM hack playthroughs. Maybe another one would hit like this did. But for the life of me I could not and cannot think of anything more soul crushing.

I wouldn't say I had aspirations to be a Big Time YouTube Man, but at that time I would have maybe liked to be a Moderate Size YouTube Man. Or a moderate size Twitch man. Someone who had people watching but was still able to have fun with it and do his own thing. This newfound realization that it was truly a random lottery, even beyond the random lottery that most of human life is, that becoming any size bigger than Small Time was literally decided by an actual factual random number generator, freed me from the desire to do anything that I didn't want to do. If actively chasing success on these modern, algorithmically-driven platforms, actively going after "Kaizo Sonic 2 Full Run" numbers, meant putting aside the things I like and reinventing myself and the things I do down to the minute details in order to appease a literal ghost beyond anyone's understanding or control that changes what it's looking for on a whim, then I did not want to do that. I did not want to keep a timer for when I could talk normal, I did not want to announce my streams on Twitter with the link in a separate reply one day, in an embedded image the next, and in my display name the next. If there is absolutely one thing I do not want to do in my life, it's dance for a robot.

But the most freeing thing about realizing this is that it also meant if I just kept doing stuff I liked, maybe, someday, I could get lucky enough to where the unknowable internet robot would push that in front of a million or so people. In the grand scheme of things it's about an equal chance of that happening on something I like and am proud of versus something I made in a desperate cloying attempt to placate an algorithm.

Anyway damn this got long and rambly sorry about that lol. This was initially meant to just be a little toast to the 5 year-ish anniversary of me fully becoming an Internet nihilist. Remember folks, it's meaningless to chase success in an algorithm dominated landscape. In the words of a certain extremely Normal-type man, "real life isn't all just being true to yourself", but I reject the notion that the Internet is not or should not be, in spite of the legion of ghouls and freaks at the top of the chain actively trying to make that the case every day.

Be true to yourself. Do what you love, make what you love, post what you love, and maybe if you're lucky a computer somewhere will decide it's your turn, because that's the single deciding factor in all of this. In the mean time, you'll end up slowly and naturally surrounding yourself with cool people who get you, if only a little bit. At least that's what's happened for me so far. I've been pretty alright with it.

Why in the world wouldn’t Saige/Poppy run the emails through Turnitin before blindly believing an anon? The sock puppet email address is super easy to fact check too. There are only a few email services that don’t require 2fa verification. It would be easy to just google the domain the names to see if they’re from one of them.

And anyone with two eyes would understand why sexymegamilkermistress097391@hotmail.com wouldn't have a legitimate complaint to offer to Poppy's clinic compared to her ex, the guest she sexually harassed, and possible clients and other victims.

Bluesky #ATProtocol uses domain names as user handles. Parker Higgins did a great write up that mostly focuses on the possibilities of what using domains can enable.

I ran into a FB marketplace scam the other day: the account was from 2009, so even though I couldn't see any of his info, I assumed it was probably a real person.

He contacted me about a table I had listed for sale, asked how long I'd had it, then told me he was out of town for business but his brother would pick it up later that day, and what was my address? I said I'd send it when I knew when he was on his way, and gave him my approx location instead. That didn't bother him; all seemed well.

Then he said he would pay me online (still makes sense: most FB marketplace sales are cash lately, but if someone else is picking it up for him, this tracks) and asked for my Zell or Paypal (options: also feels legit). I gave him my phone number for Zelle. He said Zelle wanted my email to confirm, since this was his first time sending money to me.

This is weird. To my knowledge, Zelle won't ask for confirmation of someone's identity via email: you can have your phone number and email registered to two separate accounts. I thought this was kinda weird, but not enough that it fazed me, and I went with it.

I got an email "from Zelle" saying he'd tried to send me the amount I requested for the table, but my account limit was too low because it wasn't a business account. I need to get the guy to send me another $400 "to verify".

Weird. Guy says he got a similar error message, and he's had this problem before because his Zelle is a business account. If I call the support number in the email, they can resolve it.

I call. They say yeah, no problem, we just need him to send you $400 so we can verify and raise the limit on your account for this transaction. We know that sounds kinda sketchy to some people, so we're going to call him and explain it to him as well.

While this is happening I'm googling the "Zelle support" phone number from the email, and can't get anything (because all of the phone number verification services at the top of the search results are all paywalled scams themselves). "Zelle support" says they have him on the phone, and the guy DMs me to say he's sending the $400. I get another email "from Zelle".

Finally I google the "Zelle support" email, which is, very suspiciously, an @gmail.com address. This is super weird; why wouldn't Zelle have their own domain name? Finally I get a bunch of results saying yes, this is a scam, and outlining basically this exact scenario and how it works. I hang up, tell the guy that I know it's a scam (and if it isn't, somehow, he can call Zelle support himself- and/or his bank- and get the money sent back), report him to FB, and block him before he can send me anything else.

I share all of this because I'm usually pretty privvy to scams, but this one got super far with me before I finally clocked it. There's a lot of shit people can do to get around common knowledge about how to identify scams, but imo, the best and most reliable way to identify a scam is the one I should have done way before calling that number: googling phone numbers and email addresses.

It doesn't take a lot of time, it's easy to remember to do it for just about any new contact you make with a number or address, and there aren't a lot of ways to fuck it up. We can't learn every single scam that exists, but contact info for real, actual businesses and organizations is a lot harder to fake.

No checkmark, no domain name, no problem: other ways to verify your Bluesky self

Please, please, please: Don't leave potential followers on Bluesky guessing about whether that's really you.

As the ongoing flight from Twitter has continued, it’s been heartening to see so many familiar names show up on Bluesky, the Twitter alternative that comes closest to replicating what I liked about Twitter when it wasn’t run by a shitposting billionaire with a toxic social-media diet and a victimhood complex. At least, I think those are familiar names. But because Bluesky’s only equivalent of…

Mastering Copyrights and Artist Branding in the Digital Era

Copyrights and artist branding are fundamental aspects of a musician's journey in the digital age. With the rise of online platforms, understanding intellectual property laws and effectively building your brand are more critical than ever. This article dives deep into how artists can navigate copyright issues, leverage branding tools, and use modern platforms to achieve lasting success.

Why Understanding Copyrights Matters

For artists, copyright is not just a legal term—it’s a way to protect your creativity and monetize your work. Many creators often wonder, When is music public domain? Public domain music refers to compositions or recordings no longer protected by copyright, meaning they can be freely used without permission. Knowing when music enters the public domain allows you to use classical pieces or old recordings in your projects without fear of infringement.

However, not all content is freely available. Ensuring your original work is copyrighted gives you legal control, preventing unauthorized use. This protection also helps you generate revenue through licensing, royalties, or selling your compositions. Artists who neglect copyright basics risk losing their intellectual property to opportunistic parties.

Branding Yourself as an Artist

In the competitive music industry, branding plays a vital role in setting yourself apart. Whether you’re a solo performer or part of a band, your identity as an artist influences your audience's perception. Platforms like Spotify offer tools to showcase your unique style. A common question for many musicians is, Can you change your Spotify artist name? The answer is yes, but the process requires careful planning. Your name is often the first thing fans recognize, so changes should align with your overall brand strategy.

Consistency across platforms is crucial. From your artist name to album artwork and social media presence, maintaining a cohesive image builds trust and recognition. Listeners are more likely to connect with artists who present a clear and authentic identity.

Leveraging Social Media for Promotion

Social media platforms have transformed how musicians reach audiences. For instance, TikTok has become a game-changer in the music world, allowing artists to share snippets of their songs and engage with a global fanbase. But to stand out, it’s essential to verify TikTok. A verified account not only adds credibility but also gives you access to features that enhance visibility, such as priority placement on trending pages.

Verification also fosters trust among your followers, making them more likely to engage with your content. This increased interaction can translate into higher streaming numbers and greater opportunities for collaborations.

Monetizing Your Music Career

Understanding how to generate income from your music is another critical aspect of branding. Platforms like YouTube offer multiple ways to monetize your content. If you’re wondering how to make money by YouTube channel, the answer lies in diversifying your revenue streams. Ads, sponsorships, memberships, and merchandise sales are just a few ways to capitalize on your channel's success.

Pairing your YouTube efforts with your music releases can create a cycle of growth. For example, you can release a behind-the-scenes video of your album production or a tutorial for fans. Such content not only drives engagement but also encourages fans to explore your music further.

Avoiding Common Pitfalls

Despite the abundance of opportunities, many artists fall into traps that hinder their progress. Failing to understand licensing agreements or neglecting copyright laws can lead to financial and legal troubles. Similarly, inconsistent branding can confuse your audience, weakening their connection to your music.

Another challenge is balancing self-promotion with authenticity. Overpromoting can alienate your audience, while underpromoting might leave your talent unnoticed. Striking the right balance ensures that you stay true to your craft while expanding your reach.

The Path Forward

Success as a musician in the digital era requires a combination of creativity, knowledge, and strategic planning. By understanding copyright laws, building a strong brand, and leveraging platforms like TikTok and YouTube, you can unlock your full potential. Explore tools like Spotify’s artist profile customization and seek opportunities to engage with your audience authentically.

Remember, every step you take contributes to your long-term growth as an artist. Whether it’s protecting your music, growing your fanbase, or monetizing your talent, the key lies in persistence and adaptability.
